Which statement does not follow from the polygyny threshold model? O The quality of a male's territory should affect his mating success. O A female's decision to occupy a certain territory depends on the number of females already present but not on territory quality. O Polygyny should occur in patchy environments where males can defend valuable resources. O When females settle onto territories at the same time, those on monogamous and polygamous territories should have approximately equal fitness.
